Thinking of buying the 2018 Chevrolet Malibu LT?

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2018 Chevrolet Malibu LT for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2018 Chevrolet Malibu LT, here is what the figures say and what to look at.

Before you sign for the Malibu

NHTSA has 711 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine, electrical system and power train. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

Under the hood: the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Expect about 23 litres for every 300 km, going by its 7.8 L/100 km combined rating. At our price setting, it costs about $12.09 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who it is for

It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

Space and size

As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Its 368 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Rent it for a week first

Rent the Malibu for a week and see how it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Picking a year and a trim

Compare the LT with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$2,250 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.09 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Renting for Patsy

We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Patsy starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 1,196 km from Patsy, and does not deliver there.
